Use of P-GNF supported Pt. Conventional Pt/Carbon electrodes use heavy metal loading. Due to the unique structural characteristics of carbon nanofibers, the metal loading can be reduced by an order of magnitude making the electrodes more affordable.

Graphitic carbon nanofibers are the most direct route to GRAPHENE manufacture. Our patent covers the procedure for the production of the highest most crystalline materials that can be readily separated into individual graphene layers via proprietary methods without the harsh chemical procedures usually required for the production of this compound from single crystal graphite. Our process involves the generation of narrow graphene nanofibers from the Cu-Fe catalyzed decomposition of CO/Hydrogen.

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes A method for producing high yields of high purity MWNT from the Co-MgO catalyzed decomposition of CO/Hydrogen. These materials have a multi-faceted surface architecture rather than the normal cylindrical form. Due to their unique structure blending with polymeric solids and dispersion in various liquid media can be easily achieved.
